Maximum longevity: 16.5 years (captivity)
Observations: These animals appear to be amongst the fastest ageing primates (Austad 1997). One female lived 16.5 years in captivity (http://ipad.primate.wisc.edu/). In addition, one male specimen reportedly lived 22.8 years in captivity (Richard Weigl 2005). Although possible, because there are no other known cases of common marmosets living over 16.5 years, the accuracy of this report is considered questionable.
